Online Reservation Portal

  • If a shelter has been reserved through the Parks office or online by an individual or entity paying the reservation fee, then it would not be available to the public on that date.  All shelters are available on a first-come, first-serve basis at no charge, if the shelter has not been reserved.  There is a fee to reserve specific shelters.
  • RESERVED signs have been installed at shelters. Signs will be flipped to RESERVED by Parks & Recreation if there is a scheduled reservation that day. 
  • Reservations are for the entire day (from the time the park opens until it closes).  Shelters/pavilions are not available for partial-day or hourly rental.
  • Shelters can be reserved up to 365 days in advance. No shelter may be reserved less than two (2) business days prior to the date of the reservation.
  • ​Discounts are available to official, documented non-profit organizations.
  • The person reserving the shelter is responsible for securing any appropriate permits, utility hook-ups, decorations, or other special requirements.
  • Shelter reservations include the standard amenities normally located at each shelter including picnic tables and trash cans.
  • ​Electricity can be obtained for an additional $30 daily charge from green power boxes located near some shelters.
